  1. 50Lb braid is what I use most for my mainline. Great castabilityand handling. And it's heavy enough for all applications
  2. My goal is to boat/bank flip a 6lber and to catch an 8lb largemouth.
  3. I didn't see Bill lowen I guess. And yeah Jordan Lee is in bucket a for me.
  4. I have the 7'5. It's a very versatile rod. I use it for carolina rigs now. But have used it for 1/2 ounce traps all the way to 8xds
  5. Yeah it's about to get sketchy here as well.
  6. I felt guilty for not picking Jacob Wheeler in group a because he was the only one I seen that's from indiana like me.
  7. Is the technology advancing or the marketing team getting better?
  8. I've never even heard of most of these guys let alone watched an elite event. I'd say I've got a good chance at last
  9. Where do you sign up for this? I'd love a circuit city gift card! Almost as much as a blockbuster gift card
  10. Just about any Mexican restraunt will give you fried ice cream and sing "feliz cumpleaños"
  11. I'm not basshunter, but croakhunter lol I have mine in the 8:1 gear ratio for jigs
  12. Daiwa fuego can be had for 65 bucks on eBay. They fish way above their price point. The fuego rods are really nice as well
  13. Hard to fish all those baits on 1 rod. What you listed is about 2-4 different rods. But from the reviews I've read, the 734 is super versatile.
  14. I can think of multiple times when color mattered more than shape/action. And vice versa. When me and my tourney partner are fishing the only time we are throwing the same platic is once we establish a good pattern. And still usually I'm throwing it with a heavier weight making short precise pitches and underhand casts while he is making regular casts, soaking the bait a bit more. Until we really pin point what they want
  15. Berkley lightning rod. Not the shock. Go to ffotackle.com and you can have one for about 30 bucks
  16. Zoom has a "tomato" colored brush hog that I'm anxious to try this year
  17. I'm from around evansville too. About 25 minutes from the east side to my house. Maybe we could do some fishing this spring. Welcome aboard!
  18. In a perfect situation, you would want a lure to fall in the average of the suggest lure weight. For example if you had a rod rated from 1/4 - 1 ounce, a 1/2 ounce advertised bait would be "ideal" for this. I use a 7'5 mh to throw Crankbaits over 1/2 ounce. (9/16-1 1/4) The rod is rated 1/2 to ***/8
  19. Sounds nice. And yeah definitely a shallow spool. But that's not always a bad thing. Especially if you use braid.
  20. Not the "latest catch" but thought I would post since I thought I lost the pic. Heck of a fiasco On this day. Up for 27 hrs straight, forgot the net, sheared a pin in the trolling motor, dropped pliers in 20ft of water so couldn't replace the pin. Was throwing a kvd sexy frog On my 6'6 Shakespeare medium heavy with 15Lb mono. Forgot my braid setup. I believe this is my 4th biggest bass. And I have caught it once more 2 years later after it was spawned out and not nearly as big. We tagged this fish after I caught it the first time.
